I ordered the big daddy hoping to get some serious smoking done and boy did I. I really liked the way it came packed everything was perfect, no major dents or scratches. I am able to put about 7 racks of baby backs in the main chamber and 9 in the chimney. I have used this about 7 times now and each time my food comes out perfect. If I had any complaints it would be placing the thermometer in the middle of the main chamber instead of next to the firebox. I also would have liked better directions. I didn't realize I needed to spray it down with PAM and burn it in for a few hours to season the unit but boy am I glad I did. If you do not plan on doing allot of slow smoking then you can get the unit with just the firebox and the main chamber and skip the big daddy's price.

I have had this smoke just a month now. I have used it ten times. It is already rusting in the fire box and the vertical box. The vertical box is saging and pulling away from the smoker box. There are several places where the welds are not complete and you can see light where it should be sealed . YOu can see smoke escaping from places where it should be sealed. The fire paint on the fire box is peeling off already.I was missing 8 bolts and just went to the hardward store and bought them since no one at Medina will call me back . I am very sad I bought this smoker. I would nor recomend it to anyone. I wish amazon would let me return this item . And the metal is so light it does not hole heat like it should.

Buy this if you are looking for a fixture for your yard. The quality is absolutely poor. I did not even get what is advertised in the picture. The paint came off when we cured the smoker. Not to mention, it is not completely welded so it leaks all over the patio. Good luck if you chose to buy this bolt-together tin box.
